The Leaf River, like the Chickasawhay River, flows for more than 150 miles through southeast Mississippi before merging to for the Pascagoula. For most of its length it tends to be a bit small for many motor boaters and a bit big for many paddlers, making it an ideal spot for a quiet getaway. Many other rivers and creeks join the Leaf River along its course and it grows significantly before its terminus. The river widens considerably on this stretch and sandbars become vast. These sandbars are frequented by great blue herons that are often spotted snatching up fish from the river.
